Elizabeth was a likely a natural redhead. Pictures of her father and grandfather show them having the same red hair color. However, she did use a lead based white paint to make her skin appear whiter, a common cosmetic for aristocratic women. Unfortunately, the lead wore away layers of skin and probably was responsible for her going bald in later life. At that point, she wore numerous wigs in public.
